  • Alice Canonico

    SECRETARY GENERAL

    Hi! My name is Alice Canonico and I am a the Secretary General as well as a Junior in International Affairs. I am minoring in French, Russian, and Leadership and getting a certificate in Peace, Conflict and Security studies. On campus, I am also involved in the climbing and Russian clubs.

    In my free time I like to ski, snowboard, climb, hike and pretty much do anything outdoors, I also love cooking and baking.

    I am so excited to see this club grow and expand, I cannot wait to see what we can do. This club started as just a way for me to get a little more connect to the massive campus I found myself on and has become something I find myself looking forward to every week.

  • Abby Vsetecka

    CO-SECRETARY OF HIGH SCHOOL CONFERENCES

    Hello! My name is Abby Vsetecka and I am Co-Secretary of High School Affairs, as well as a Junior studying Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology here at CU Boulder! While much of my student life consists of anything and everything science, the rest of my time is filled up working as a CNA at Good Samaritan Hospital, sitting in as a member of Arts and Sciences Student Government, teaching science classes to local elementary students, and advocating for more public health education on campus!

    In my minimal free time, you’ll find me outside hiking, running, or engaging in any recreational sports I can. Otherwise, I really love reading with a cup of tea and cooking (and eating) new food from all over or binging a random tv show with my friends.

    I am so excited to see this club grow with people excited to be active global citizens! Although MUN started as just a fun Thursday meeting I went to after class, it has become such an integral part of my college experience, allowing me to meet so many people, see some cool places, and challenge myself to collaborate with others on difficult global issues. Please reach out to me with anything - can’t wait for this year!

  • Nathan Bish

    UNDERSECRETARY

    I am Nathan Bish, a Junior student at CU Boulder. I focus broadly on both pre-med and pre-law studies, so I’m always happy to help out with any type of question and make a great trivia partner. I am also an EMT, a member of Student Government, and an officer in the Hiking Club!

    In my off time, I enjoy skiing, backpacking, construction/ landscaping, and getting way too invested in movies like Star Wars and Marvel. I’m also a big fan of traveling both domestically and abroad and attending festivals/ events so if you ever need advice on out-of-the-box things to do, you know who to ask.

    As our club continues to welcome new members, I look forward to meeting everyone! Whether you’re looking to learn about international affairs or you’re just hoping to find a new group of people to have a great time with, joining Model UN is a great first start.
